CLINTON ON RESPONSIBILITY

THIS ENTIRE ARTICLE FROM THE MRC IS WORTH READING. IT BRINGS BACK SOME OF CLINTON’S WORDS FROM THE PAST THAT THE MEDIA GIVE HIM A PASS ON. THIS QUOTE BELOW HAS CLINTON SPEAKING OF RESPONSIBILITY. WHAT DOES THIS WORD MEAN TO PEOPLE ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE POLITICAL WORLD? NORMALLY, THEY ARE THE ONES CRYING OUT AGAINST THE TRADITIONAL MEANING OF THE TERM. IN OTHER WORDS, THEY ARE SEEMINGLY ALWAYS THE ONES TRYING TO CONVINCE US THAT THEIR ACTIONS ARE NOT INCONSISTENT WITH THE TRADITIONAL MEANING OF THE TERM. SPECIFICALLY, CLINTON HAS CHOSEN NOT TO ASCRIBE A TRADITIONAL MEANING TO THE TERM IN REFERENCE TO HIS ACTIONS WITH MONICA, WACO AND NOW HIS PROPAGANDA AGAINST RUSH AND THE TEA PARTY MOVEMENT. A MORE GENERAL APPLICATION, INTERESTINGLY, IS TOWARD LEGISLATION IN GENERAL WHERE CONSERVATIVES HAVE CONSISTENTLY RECOMMENDED CAUTION WHEN THE LEFT HAS RUSHED INTO PASSING SWEEPING CHANGES TO THE WAY AMERICANS INTERACT WITH THEIR GOVERNMENT. BEING RESPONSIBLE IS STAYING WITHIN YOUR CONSTITUTIONALY GIVEN AUTHORITY. WHAT IS THE LEFT’S CONSISTENT RESPONSE? “QUIT BEING PARANOID” OR “YOU JUST WANT TO PERPETUATE THE STATUS QUO.” YEP, ‘RESPONSIBILITY’ IS NOT A WORD THAT SHOULD PASS THE LIPS OF THE LEFT WITHOUT A WATCHFUL MEDIA MATCHING PAST ACTIONS AND WORDS WITH THE SPEAKER’S PRESENT APPEARANCE IN THE WORLD OF WORDS.

Clinton added to the paranoia theme: “I’m sure you are now seeing the reports of some things that are regularly said over the airwaves in America today. Well, people like that who want to share our freedoms must know that their bitter words can have consequences, and that freedom has endured in this country for more than two centuries because it was coupled with an enormous sense of responsibility.”
